Worlds Apart - Taekook - Book 2

Chapter 274 - Professional

"Hello, welcome to Mr Kim's floor... actually it's his building and company." the flustered young woman rambled.

Jungkook didn't recognise her so presumed she must be new. He'd heard from Ash the other day that Stefan was training up his replacement. "Hello."

The young woman's cheeks are rosy and her dark hair is cut into a sharp curve that follows the line of her jaw. "How can I assist you?"

"I'm here to see Mr Kim." He says kindly. He wasn't the type to throw his weight around or announce himself as the husband. The last thing that the poor girl needed was more pressure and she seemed quite flustered as it was, without the whole 'Mr Kim's husband thing'.

"He's currently in a meeting but should be available once that has concluded. Please take a seat. Can I get you some coffee or water?"

"No, thank you."

"JUNGKOOK! I thought it was you... I was trying to get here before your meeting so i could introduce you..." Stefan rushed into view, as flustered as the young woman was and Jungkook wondered what was going on, as Purple Aura was usually quite a relaxed place. The staff were tense when they knew that Taehyung was around and Jungkook now found a lot of humour in the reactions when staff got into the same elevator as the CEO. He couldn't understand why people believed the rumours about their boss because he wasn't the tyrant he was made out to be and when you spoke to employees, they had nothing but praise for him... he found it all very odd.

The young woman thrusts her hands over her mouth and her eyes widen in shock, "Jungkook?" she mumbles.

"Jungkook... why are you waiting out here?" Stefan looks from the woman to Jungkook and back again, looking for a response.

"Stefan, it's fine. Tae is in a meeting." Jungkook stands to greet the former P.A.

The woman looks like she's going to cry and Jungkook is more concerned about her than anything else. He also wonders if this is the right job for her if she is this nervous?

"Eunji, this is Mr Kim's Husband. He shouldn't be left out here to wait." Stefan says to the woman who slowly removes her hands from her mouth.

"That is my mistake. I'm sorry for that." she says with a shaky voice.

Jungkook waves his hand in the air, "It's okay. I can wait out here. If Tae is busy, he's busy, it doesn't matter who I am."

"It will matter to Mr Kim. Eunji, would you like to get yourself a coffee?" Stefan smiles at the woman.

"Yes, thank you, Mr Choi... would either of you like one? Should I get Mr Kim one? I mean, get him a tea... Mr Kim... he doesn't drink coffee... oh... sometimes he does... but it's rare."

"No thank you." Jungkook responds.

"We are fine, thank you, Eunji." Stefan bows as the new P.A skitters past.

Jungkook breathes out a giggle once the woman is out of sight, "Is Eunji, Stefan 2.0?"

"Yes. She is Mr Kim, Taehyung's new P.A. She is very qualified."

"She looked upset. I don't want her worried that she's made a mistake because of me."

"She is hard on herself. The new administration team is taking time to organise so I wasn't here when you arrived, as I wanted to be. Didn't she realise who you were when you told her?"

"I didn't say who I was." Jungkook informs him.

"Were you asked for your name?" Stefan asks, walking around to the desk so he can look at the notes and screen.
